Happy Belated 4th & Amhara Day

Good evening ladies! I'm back to the blogging world. It was kind of nice taking a week off as I find myself getting caught up in all things "blog" more frequently than not.

I hope everyone had a great 4th! We headed about 3 hours east of Seattle to a small town called Chelan. The town is built around an enormous lake called...you got it...Lake Chelan. We love it there! It's a short distance from rainy Seattle and very warm. Plus, it's one of those places that reminds me of Pickwick lake, a place I sometimes visited back in the Southeast growing up - small, quaint, not a whole lot to do, and you can enjoy the sun and water!! So without further ado, I will leave you with our mini vaca via pictures...

 
 About 10 minutes outside of Chelan...almost there!
 Pitstop at park until our condo was ready

View from our room. Cool thing is boats can park right there at the railing.
 
Water was literally crystal clear. I didn't get in though because it was rather chilly.
My cutie patootie




She's always stylin'

It's nearly impossible for Brian to get a good picture of us. She won't smile.






On our way back to Seattle
Last drag before we're back to our house. Check out Mt. Rainier in the distance. Those of you not from here, we don't see this mountain often.

And a Happy 4th!

Now, on to an OOTD (combining posts here:))

 Anthropologie top, Amhara skirt, and Dearie Me wedges

The saying around here is that summer starts on the 4th...and yep, it's finally here. Yay! Time to break out my summer clothes. Today, I pulled out my comfy Amhara skirt. I love this thing! It has a smocked elastic back making it super cozy. Throw that on with a purple top and my Dearie Me wedges, and I was out the door!

2 more days until the weekend. Gotta love short work weeks!
